You know one of the main reasons we should see polycules in fantasy stories? Consider settings where the ‘Power of Love’ is a real, tangible force.

Now just imagine the POWER a fully realized polycule could have.

Like we’ve seen just how much power can be generated by the love between a hero and a love-interest.

Now imagine if we take the love between the heroine and her GF, then add onto that the love between the heroine and her rival-turned-lover, AND the love between the rival and the aforementioned GF who are estranged childhood friends who have finally admitted their long-repressed feelings for each other.

Just turning a couple into a throuple potentially TRIPLES the number of potential love-generating links.

And that’s just with three people in a polycule.

A four-person polycule? That’s SIX times the potential power.

A five-person polycule is TEN times the power.

A six-person is FIFTEEN times.

You can see how this can get nutty VERY quickly.

Heck, imagine if in such a setting, the idea of polycules is initially ridiculed out of some belief that ‘love’ is some finite resource and a polycule is merely dividing up that power.

Only for the protag-polycule to prove this notion DEVASTATINGLY wrong.

Asia Neo Mattina Concept, 1995. A cross between an SUV and an Minivan (the press release refers to it as Multi Purpose Vehicle) designed by Lotus Engineering that was presented at the Soul Motor Show and never seen again.

I've alluded to the concept a number of times, but here's my redesign for OLC Belle the Sleeping Car wildly roleswapped into a Momma/Poppa figure for Electra, as Belle the GG1. You could probably give her a better name, but Belle is passable enough since all locomotives in the US have bells, I mainly kept it to preserve the flow of her song (see below cut for her version!). Based on their status and appearance in their absolute final running days in 1984. They may look glossy and pretty (if a WILD time warp) but they were on their absolute last gasp physically at this point after running for nearly 50 years, due to a lack of suitable replacement. Her dress follows a similar logic to Greaseball's outfit in that it represents the streamlined cowl, which is why she's less mechanical than most.

Personality-wise, she's also oooooold and based on Ella Fitzgerald, even more heavily than OLC Belle since she's fits perfectly with the time/place/personality of the GG1s. Both started in the mid-30s in New York City, and were noted for being "effortless" and almost unparalleled in their field. I tend to imagine her playing more on the "cute, humble, and improvisational" side of Ella, entering the big race just to have one last good run before she retires, and forgetting lyrics and making up something that sounds natural. In my mind she wins because the tracks are rough and winding, which she's far more used to that the other Nationals, with how decrepit parts of her Northeast Corridor were in the 80s and still are now- experience is a quality that counts for a lot!

She toes the line between OC and AU since she's such a twist on the original but stays largely true to her general concept. I'll call her more of an AU and say anyone is free to use this interpretation if they want, I'm not possessive of it at all.

Realistically she'd be dead as a doornail after 1984 (GG1s will just never run in preservation, they were in such bad shape and would need so much work to function on modern systems you may as well build a new replica). But make a cheeky joke about Controls' mom "sticking the old shell on a new body and not telling the kid" and she can come back. I like to think she'd have a flirty, playful rivalry with Momma/Poppa, she'd make Light At The End Of The Tunnel a duet about how steam is great.... for power plants! The Pennsylvania Railroad just stopped getting more steam engines when it electrified lines vs axing them so she wouldn't have any historical antagonism with them.

Here's my rewrite of Belle's Song largely following the original format, but now about the real history of the GG1s

Speed and youth ain't everything

Experience is a quality that counts for a lot

The sad thing 'bout experience is

By the time you've got it

It's usually all you've got...

I'm Belle, Belle, Belle, the GG1

Had my fifty years of fun

My frame is cracked, I’m almost done

Though in my heart, I long to run

I hauled the folks, I hauled the freight

I made good time, no need to wait

Just couple up and ride with me

I’d get you where you want to be

Once I was the hope for the future, wires run from coast to coast

Service every hour, to everywhere, hauling the post!

Now it’s just tragic…

The war then came, it all fell down

Restriction made the new tech drown

Let autos win, pave over it all

Watched the railroads slowly fall

Still I was a real mainliner, they struggled to replace me

Ran commuter trains into the ground

Down by the sea…. At least it was scenic

Oh, Belle, Belle, Belle, the GG-LOST

I’m worn down, yet I’m still boss

I may not be first class, but I'm not yet worst class

I can still take you when the night is dark

I’m withered, but I ain’t lost my spark

man no wonder there are so many horror stories about people fucking up their lives by putting solar panels on their house. everything about this process is designed to be as opaque as physically possible for the end user

A LOOK BACK at RAM & KING

MY ENGINEER (2020, THAILAND)

Part 2 Post 2

After rant about holding back King (TALAY SANGUANDIKUL aka LAY) laid a kiss on Ram (NAKHUN SCREAIGH aka PERTH) and Ram reciprocated tenderly.

Like most multi couple BL Series there wasn't enough of RamKing as they were main roles but the story was lead by BOHNADUEN.

But I appreciate all the time given with RamKing even though they deserved more.

You know, in general I feel like Sanderson does a great job of thinking through his world building and making logical choices, and trying to rationally explain why the really cool stuff exists (like Shardblades being the stock Big Improbable Fantasy Swords but there actually being a reason why they're like that), but the one thing I'm calling bull on is the chickens. I think he just did that because he wanted his characters to be comedically unfamiliar with chickens. You're telling me humanity decided to take pigs into every settlement on this horrible barren storm world, but not chickens? Pigs, which are a. Smart and b. Onery and which would require fences made of stone to keep them from running away, heavy and durable enough not to blow away in the winds, vs. chickens, which are a. Small, and b. Easy To Care For, which can be taught to return to their roost after free-ranging everywhere and eating every tiny cremling and bit of plant life they can find? Yeah I don't buy that. He knew the characters needed leather and he thought the chicken thing was funny. And you know what? He's right. He can have this one. But just this once.
